Welcome
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I see you have written an article on a historical city in Yoruba. Unfortunately, your work was saved on a page that belongs to the Wikipedia Help system, rather than on its own page as a new article normally would be. I'm sure that's not what you intended, so I copied your work to this page before I restored the original Help system page. You can continue to work on your article there until you feel it's ready to add to the encyclopedia.

Your contribution to Wikipedia is certainly appreciated! You may want to do some formatting, though, to make it look more like other articles. A tutorial is available to help you with this. Simply click the link in the preceding sentence to read it. You can also access the tutorial from the Editing link near the top of the Main page.

Also, allow me to introduce you to the Five Pillars of Wikipedia. These are the foundation principles of our entire project, and every editor should be familiar with them. There are hundreds of pages of policies and guidelines for contributing to Wikipedia, far too much for anyone to absorb before becoming an editor, but the Five Pillars are enough to start with; you'll learn as you continue editing.

I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have as you explore Wikipedia. You can leave me a message on my Talk page; just click the new section tab at the top, then fill in a subject and your message in the boxes provided. (Be sure to sign your name after your message, by adding "~" to the end.) Of course, I'm not online all the time, so there may be some delay; you can get faster answers at the Help desk, where there's somebody watching for your questions pretty much all the time.

Again, welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy your time here! -- Unconventional (talk) 02:00, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
